Tick-Tock

This old clock graces our dining room wall. It was made by Ingraham about 1915. It is a "Nyanza". It is 39 inches tall and ten inches wide.

This gem, when it is allowed to run, keeps very accurate time. Sometimes during a scrabble game, BBBH will say, "That ticking's enough to drive you to drink." There have been occasions when overnight guests have gotten up in the night and stopped my clock. Such nerve.

In this shot, you can see that the clock is running. I need a faster camera; but this is sorta cool.
